Updatez..

Its been a long time since I posted here ! The past few weeks have been hectic, I had gone for a sight seeing tour to Bangkok during the Vesak day's long weekend. Some of the photos can be found at flickr.

I flew by budget carriers namely Thai AirAsia and Tiger Airlines, took a backpacker's lodging at a hostel called Suk11. Went around the city most of the time through their metered taxis and their intra city train, except for getting fooled by one of the drivers of the tuk-tuk on the first day :)

But the place was very cheap (by Singapore standards) and reminded me of India a couple of times, in terms of the bargaining and cheating the tourist interacting folks practice in. Overall, the local crowd was very friendly and the city has lot a variety of architectural wonders to offer !
